42.EPRI, News Release, Yucca Radiation Standard Should Use Different Approach, April 18, 2005
EPRI's news release summarizes the results of its study, Yucca Mountain Licensing Standard Options for Very Long Time Frames."The radiation protection standard for the Yucca Mountain, Nevada, spent nuclear fuel repository should be fundamentally different for the periods exceeding 10,000 years, according to a new study just published by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). The recommendations in the report recognize that detailed information about processes and events taking place many tens of thousands of years in the future will not be available and that different requirements are necessary to explicitly acknowledge that uncertainties increase with time."

46.Reducing CO2 Emissions In New England
This assessment demonstrates the strategic importance of nuclear energy in meeting New England’s commitment to reduce greenhouse gas emissions under the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI). Specifically, this assessment demonstrates the importance of renewing the licenses of the Pilgrim and Vermont Yankee nuclear power plants, continuing the operation of Seabrook and Millstone 2 and 3, and building new nuclear generating capacity, if New England (the six states operate within a single regional grid) hopes to meet the RGGI CO2 emissions limit (10% reduction from 2006 levels) by the 2019 deadline.
